Irish goalkeeper Caoimhin Kelleher, who is capable of being a Premier League regular despite being a reserve for Alisson Becker, is the best second-choice goalkeeper, but has only played when the Brazilian goalkeeper has been injured or in cup competitions.
If he is not injured, or if he does not win a cup competition, his availability is greatly restricted, but he is still looking for his chance on the bench. However, with Georgian goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili set to join the club next summer, he is certain to leave Anfield next season.
According to CaughtOffside, Leeds United, who currently play in the Championship, are eyeing the Liverpool goalkeeper as a target if they are promoted to the top flight. The reason behind this, they say, is a decline in confidence in French goalkeeper Illan Meslier.
The 24-year-old Leeds defender has made 196 appearances for the club, including in the Premier League. At one time he was tipped for the future, but has not been selected for the national team since the France U-21 team.
The 26-year-old Irish goalkeeper, who would certainly be a regular at a promoted club, has made no secret of his desire to play every week. He stayed despite rumours of an exit this summer. It is looking increasingly likely that he will finally be a free agent next season.
Will Leeds United return to the top flight and secure the best second-choice goalkeeper from Liverpool?
